Pass on the Chemicals
Don’t use toxic chemicals in your home or in your gardens. Find Earth-friendly alternatives. You can also let the weeds ‘bee’ until the bees have had a chance to access their nector-rich blooms.
ADDED BENEFIT: Weeds often draw butterflies and a variety of beneficial insects to your garden.
Keep it Local
If you use honey, purchase raw, organic honey from local, sustainable beekeepers.
